Chapter 9: The Darkness of Yuanchu

"As of the time of reporting, there were 462 bloody conflicts in the United States... Twenty ones were large-scale conflicts of 100,000 people... The people broke through the isolation belt, had fierce conflicts with the military and police, and even exchanged fire..."

"Minneapolis...Salt Lake City...Montgomery...Phoenix...College suicides occurred in people...number..."

"The first speaker of the United Government Parliament Thomas (formerly President of the United States), the second speaker of Ikane Wikinov (formerly President of Russia), the third speaker of Nonik (formerly President of the European Union), the fourth speaker of Gong Min-ji (formerly President of the Qing Dynasty) issued a joint statement today. The statement said that the Noah's Ark plan is currently progressing very smoothly... At the same time, governments are working hard to build large underground shelters and will never give up any citizen easily..."

"Pope Andrew, the Doomsday Truth Pope, held a self-purification ceremony (i.e., self-immolation) in Detroit Motor Plaza early this morning. However, after his death, former Mayor Delf of Detroit swore to join the sect and took over the position of pope at the same time... President Thomas expressed severe condemnation, claiming that this was a betrayal of the American spirit..."

…………

This is the second day after Zhang Shen came to this world.

The day before, Long Tao and others' actions went very smoothly, and hundreds of politicians from various countries in the Capitol were taken down without resistance. The "rehearsal" was successful, and today is the time to "take serious action".

Long Tao and a group of powerful people in the "spiritual" realm naturally rushed to the "big fish" with one move. As for the other scattered targets, they were assigned to small teams such as Zhang Shen's team.

This time, Zhang Shen and the four of them were staying at Arlington National Cemetery.

Arlington National Cemetery is located on the west bank of the Potomac River, across from the Lincoln Memorial Hall.

The cemetery has a solemn atmosphere and a quiet and quiet environment. Inside, white marble-carved tombstones stand silently on the verdant lawn. In front of each tombstone, a national flag fluttering in the wind, connecting yin and yang, making this cemetery look particularly sacred and not desecrated.

Only American Medal of Honor, active-duty soldiers who died for the country, long-term veterans, veterans who have held senior positions in the federal government, and their orphans are eligible to be buried here. Therefore, being able to sleep here forever is almost every American dream.

As a large number of people poured into Washington, the once pure Arlington National Cemetery also became noisy, and a large number of people from all over the world came here to visit, play and pay tribute every day. Just as the end of the day, people who were helpless were particularly missed by these martyrs who died in order to defend their country.

Rather than saying that Zhang Shen and his team's target appeared in Arlington National Cemetery today, it is better to say that this area was assigned to four people. Any senior political leaders who enter the cemetery to worship will be their target.

Arlington National Cemetery covers a wide area, but fortunately, the politicians who came to commemorate the deceased would not "run around" everywhere, otherwise, Zhang Shen would have turned against each other. After all, in terms of area alone, the entire Washington, DC is only five or six times that of it.

Perhaps it is because of the overall atmosphere of Arlington National Cemetery, although there are many people, it will not make people feel unbearable.

Just as this idea came up, a noise suddenly came from the front.

At the same time, there was the smell of blood, the cry of mourning and the screams of depression.

Zhang Shen and the other four ran over quickly, only to see one lying on the lawn, having stopped breathing, and the red blood flowed out from under him, wetting the grass leaves and dyeing a bloody color.

The green lawn spreads, and the white tombstones are lined with it. Suddenly a little blood-red embellishes it, giving off a creepy beauty.

"It's the devil! It must be the devil!"

"They are here! The broadcast is right, they have spread to the whole world."

"Is even Washington safe?! Damn it, where else can I hide!"

"Is the Doomsday Truth Church correct? These devils really come to destroy humanity..."

"The Doomsday Truth Church is right. After returning home today, we will start the atonement ceremony for entering the church."

The people who are close to each other belong to different countries and regions, but their expressions on their faces are surprisingly similar, and they are anxious. From their whispers, it is obvious that the increasingly frequent "devil" incidents in Washington have gradually shifted their "faith" towards the "doomsday truth religion".

"Ouyang (Tianqi), have you seen something?" Zhang Shen and Bu Li Chen and Li Jing all at the same time turned their doubtful eyes to Ouyang Tianqi.

The latter has already constrained his mind and looked around, and did not let go of any abnormal movements.

After a long time, he shook his head and his voice rang in Zhang Shen and his wife's ears: "There is no abnormal energy fluctuation, and the so-called devil has no trace to follow." Although the tone was as usual, the three of them heard a hint of depression.

There is no doubt that this so-called "devil" is the evil spirit catalyzed by the black air column of the sky. The source is the betrayer who came to this world and walked around but suddenly left.

As the first person to discover all this, Ouyang Tianqi found that he had no way to deal with these inexplicable "devils" and could not even trace their traces. Naturally, he was unhappy.

"You said, are there any internal connections between these devils and murderers?" Bu Lichen changed the topic, "or say, does these dead people have some unknown commonalities, such as life is over, bad luck is plagued, and physical problems are there."

This is indeed a problem... Zhang Shen narrowed his eyes and began to think about the possibility that Bu Lichen said.

"No, there is no connection between them!" Li Jing's decisive words were surprising.

"I made a simple form last night and compared the relatively real information that can be found on the Internet. Although it is rough, it can still be seen that there is nothing in common between the victims, it is purely random."

Li Jing talked and after speaking, she noticed several gazes falling on her body. The surprise, surprise, admiration, praise, and praise contained in it, especially Zhang Shen's unconcealed gentle eyes, which made her face suddenly turn a light blush and dazzling.

In addition to persisting in practicing, Li Jing is also seizing every opportunity to make himself stronger and working hard silently.

Ouyang Tianqi cast a kind and affirmative look, Bu Lichen blinked at her, Zhang Shen smiled slightly, and stretched out his thumb: "A Jing, you did a good job! But remember you still have a few companions, don't force yourself too much, it's too hard."

"Hmph, I understand~~" Li Jing pouted, feeling his cheeks get a little hot.

……………………

The "Devil" incident did not affect the normal actions of Zhang Shen's target. When the four people reached the vicinity, seven targeted people from several small countries were still in place. They had completed the contemplation and were discussing what.

Around them, in addition to more than twenty tall bodyguards in suits and sunglasses, there are two teams of ten security guards. They are said to be security guards, but in fact, they look at their equipment, except for the skin, and there is no difference between them and American soldiers.

Ten security guards dispersed to patrol, separating an area to ensure that no one came in, while the more than 20 bodyguards formed a circle, about five meters away from the target person, each of them was holding pistols open, and the safety bolt was opened.

Zhang Shen placed a bouquet of flowers in front of a tombstone. The four of them seemed to be holding their fists in front of their chests, closing their eyes and bowing their heads to silently mourning the deceased, but in fact they were examining the defensive power around the target person and thinking about how to complete the task silently.

If you change a location, such as a relatively closed building, Zhang Shen and the other two can directly invisible, then sneak to the target, activate props with "submission" and "distribution" functions, and get off work and flash people.

However, this is Arlington National Cemetery, and there are many tourists around. Even if they are secretly done, there is still a risk of exposure. This risk is exactly what Zhang Shen, no, it is something that all guards must try their best to avoid.

"Flying over the heads of those bodyguards, then creating an illusion barrier, and taking this opportunity to save them, how about?" Bu Lichen thought for a moment, and then gave a suggestion that made all three of them nod.

"Wait." Just as Ouyang Tianqi spoke out to stop him.

"Ouyang, what's wrong?" Li Jing once added a talisman to his body that could give him limited floating ability, showing doubts.

"Please pay attention to the man in silver-gray clothes diagonally above our left hand. Be careful not to look too obvious to avoid alerting him."

The three of them used their abilities to "beat around the bush" to bring the nearby area into their sight.

It was a black man wearing a knee-length silver-gray coat, standing in front of a tombstone. At first glance, he was praying silently to remember the dead heroic soul.

However, Zhang Shen "saw" that there was a gun and a metal object with a silver shell the size of a chocolate hidden under his coat, which was suspected to be a bomb.

At the same time, although he seemed to be standing still and praying, he was actually observing the movement of the target person's direction through a small piece of special lens sandwiched between his fingers.

With cannon fodder that threw stones and asked for directions, Zhang Shen was not in a hurry to act. After silently reciting, he walked slowly around the neighborhood like a normal tourist.

Thirty-two minutes later, the negotiations between the seven target characters ended and they began to return.

The bodyguards around them moved one after another, forming an ancient cavalry charge formation to protect them in the center, and while advancing, they were extremely cautious.

Ten security guards also started to move, but they were stuck in the middle and back. At the same time, they felt relieved and thought that these full-fed guys finally got out of the area they were responsible for.

The man in the silver-gray coat moved, and he pretended perfectly to be a passerby who was in deep thought and did not look ahead, and walked forward with his head shut.

"Sir, please stop!" Only two or three meters away from me, and when I was about to bump into each other, the two bodyguards took a step forward and reached out to make a prohibited pass. "Please give me a moment..."

The man moved!

He perfectly interpreted the word "Silent as a virgin as a move as a rabbit", and his body suddenly moved, passing through the cracks between two bodyguards. At the same time, his hands shook, and guns and silver items suspected to be bombs slid into his palms.

Twist!!!!

Fire lights roared out with dull roars, and several bodyguards were immediately shot and fell to the ground.

Tourists around him screamed in surprise, either lying on the ground or running away.

The bodyguards and security guards were both elite soldiers and began to fight back.

Reality is not a movie. Without any cover, after knocking down half of the bodyguard, the attacker was hit by several bullets, and blood-colored flowers appeared on his body. His legs were as difficult as if they were filled with lead, and his consciousness began to blur.

At this time, he was less than fifteen meters away from the panicked target person, and could clearly see the faces distorted by fear. He recalled the expressions he saw on the electronic screen, which were either full of energy or seriousness and solemnity. While he was extremely ironic, he became more and more determined about the correctness of his behavior.

He knew he was about to die, but at this moment, he only felt calm from the inside out.

"The darkness of Yuanchu, the believer is with you." He silently recited a prayer in his heart, and he roared the last roar in his life.
Chapter completed!
